THE SMITHS

This charming man

Francois Kevorkian New York remix

Vinyl 12" single record

I am selling off (almost) my entire record collection. This 12" was bought in from an independent retailer in Greenwich Market in June 1985 (SE London) - I treated myself to it, for my 18th birthday (NOT cheap, even then)! It has been well looked after, only played a few times and then loft / garage stored (smoke free home) since the early 1990s.

Tested played – No skips / jumps, hiss or noise. There is a one slight "click" about 30 seconds after the start of the A side. I am not sure if a deep clean of the record would resolve this? However, it is definitely NOT a jump etc.

Gradings for play back vinyl quality are fair (and if anything, too cautious).

Please see my feedback to check with regard to gradings – including the recent feedback shown at the bottom of this description.

Please check photos for sleeve condition.

Apologies - I have just discovered that this record is a NEW ZEALAND pressing / import. The Australian promo 12" has the same catalogue number.
